Hawkeyes shouldn't keep having mediocre seasons

Another year of ho-hum football for Iowa. Results are the same as in the past few years. Only thing to change this year was the defense, and special teams were not great either. Coach says “we didn't execute well today” or “we just weren't the best team today.”
Well, I don't know about you but my feeling is when a coach is being paid what Kirk Ferentz is, we shouldn't keep having mediocre seasons and continually look worse. Iowa's wins this year for the most part looked ugly. We should be fighting for a spot in a BCS bowl every year. If Ferentz can't figure out how to get this done, it is time to replace him. Or, his defensive and offensive coaches must be replaced. If he can't do that, then Iowa should clean house of all of them!
